There's a third one, Kylian, but he's a step below his brothers. At Chelsea in the development squad.

Chelsea had Thorgan for a while too, but inevitably he got sold because we do not like youth players in the first team.. I've seen rumours going around that Chelsea want him back (now he's grown up and got better) so we can complete the Hazard collection


England team looks good, not sure if I'm happy with Stones over Cahill though.

Pretty much as expected. Worry where goals will come from though.

45 to go.

I am not worrying - I have faith in these young lads. A very attacking line-up. I think goals could come from anywhere - Dele, Sterling, Kane, Lingard... even Young. All very capable.

Anyone else watching it in 4K via iPlayer?

Should be good.

I am.

The picture isn’t great. BBC taking an HDR feed and translating it to HLG.

How? I've set my iPlayer to uhd/beta but can't see the option then...

Only the first 10,000 viewers get it in 4k.

I’ll reserve judgement until they kick off but I wouldn’t say it was poor. Will definitely be sharper than 1080i which is the only alternative.

Thought it was 50,000.

Only reason I’ve been watching coverage since 6:30pm TBF.

You’ll get the UHD logo in the top right when it’s in 4k

[TCEvo]

Right, c'mon England. Try not to fk this one up. Please.

[Puggit]

Pfft - we haven't scored yet.

Pathetic

[TCEvo]

Decent start & couple good saves there.

[Puggit]

Finally!
